Reminds me of my Italian neighbour that invited me over for a beer and a game of darts, his garage was decorated with numerous trophies and ribbons for darts. I thrashed him, and I rarely played the game but man he got shitty, never got another invite,
In case you didn't get the ending Botham and Willis were two of England Cricket's best players at the time, and Lords is probably the most famous cricket ground in the world. He's probably never played that either...
I've seen or heard the expression "no can do" frequently in British drama and literature. Usually spoken by WW2 military officers vetoing a request or arguing against a suggested plan. The same kind of people who who address another man as "old boy", as Ronnie B does in that sentence. An upper-class thing.
Reminded me of the first time I played squash with my husband. I was running around all over the place and turned to look at him and he was leaning on the side wall just hitting the ball back to me …..😂
"Can do" is indeed a British phrase, meaning "(I) can do (so)." It can have a slightly different meaning, depending on the intonation of the words. In my family it was often used in answer to a suggested course of action, to mean "(I) CAN (could) do, (but) ... (There might be a better idea)" ... We were an argumentative lot !
I assume 'can do' is just short for 'I can do that', just like saying 'love it' as a reaction to something you really like, instead of saying 'I love that'
You've broken your rocket. 🤣🤣🤣 I´d forgotten this. Ronnie Barker was a genius and Ronnie Corbet was a perfect partner to perform R B´s writing. Classic comedy. Connor, Check out Ronnie Barker as Norman Stanley Fetcher.
I thought 'Can do' and 'No can do' were from old Western films used when Native Amercans had lines to speak, same as 'Long time no see' I could be wrong though.
I for some reason thought that "no can do" is an Americanism as with "stiff upper-lip". Ever read Bill Bryson's "Lost Continent"? ps A few years back I was in a tea-room in England where Bryson's visit had caused a bit of stir which was commemorated. Seemingly he had spread his writerly belongings about and taken up far too much room! See Bill: ruclips.net/video/H_7dkutxGCA/видео.html
He said cracket but iti s actually cricket. Ian Botham and Bob Willis are very good and famous cricket players. Lords is a cricket ground where the major cricket games are played. So the implication is that he is going to this place to play cricket with those two even though he knows nothing about the game.
@@alrafter1593 thanks, when watched before I always thought Willis was him trying to say Wilson that think is a tennis racquet make so always was confused by it

I got challenged to a drinking contest with a Russian idiot. Guess what, he passed out. The kid was an idiot.

No Can Do was a Hall and Oates single late 1970's.

Wonderful. Really laughed, but you laughing so much made it even better.

I always thought it was American to say,can do,or no can do. Great to see the two Ronnies anyway. Cheers Connor!
poor little Ronnie is so annoyed lol
His Polo Shirt was made by Lyle and Scott, they also made his Jumpers for his monologue joke each episode.
Also a "can do person" is somebody with a positive attitude.
"Can do" is for when it is possible to do something, you'd rather not, but you will.
Your videos are incomplete without you playing your jingle half way through.
I noticed youve not done their sweet shop skit yet. Should check it out. "The Two Ronnies - Sweet Shop Sketch"
Jibbs👍brilliant, love this skit, cheers mate and snorting is fine buddy its your damn channel but we must draw the line at picking😂😂✌️
Classic 2 Ronnie's, yes Connor 🙌

The two ronnies opticians sketch is funny

If you've never realised that you can buy a pint of scrumpy in a bar at age 14, then watch Harry Potter again.
Or the Inbetweeners
As far as can do is concerned you’ve got it Connor.
Hey Connor… it’s your reaction video so you ready exactly how you want. A suggestion for you: Dave Allen Haunted House

Hi Connor.
-6c here in North East England
'Can do' and 'no can do' are both common British phrases.
Ronnie B said this was Ronnie C best performance.
If you're going to watch Dr Death, make sure you watch Name Droppers first.
You need to check out their Bert & Charlie sketch on Daily Motion. There is another one on here, but not as funny
Can do = affirmative
As I said before, you won't beat me at Croquet, I'm ranked 37th in the World and 8th in England.
Please watch twi Ronnie's misspronounciation society sketch... its hilarious lol
And no can do means you can't do it..
I love some cracket
Anyone help me understand bothven and Willis bit?

You should react to the River Severn 'Bore' ruclips.net/video/O8TeguB3BYo/видео.html
You’ve broken your rocket 🚀

Its can do
Can you please wear tighter shirts, as I'd like to see how the pushups are going... that's the only reason..... honest ;-).
Technically this sketch isn't very funny. But I still have much good will towards it.
